The other ships of the class are the Tegetthof, the Prinz Eugon and the Ezent Isth- van. The nameship was completed in October, 1912, and the others at intervals between then and the be- ginning of the war, with the exception of the Brent :Isttivan, which was not finished until 1916.

OUR ENEMY AIRPLANES BROUGHT 1 DOWN IN RAID ON LONDON ..... . • • AND CAIRO BY RAIL exception -or eneely ceuntries, Britiah Operations in :Palestine and ' Mesopotamia Entirely . • • -. • Successful. ..-- om London sa : Re- cent British operations in- Palestine and Mesopotamia are regarded as en- tirely successful by the British Gem, erre Staff. The main object of Gen. Allenby's operstions in Palestine have been largely realized. His object was not merely to occupy a large territory east of the Jordan, but to draw Turk- ish troops from the south and so ease the situation for the Arabs. This has been done to a very mark- ed extent, and the Arabs have taken full advantage of the opportunity by raiding the Hedjaz Railway at vari ous points 'until now the entiremil- ls. virtually out of_eornmission. The German troops still in the south have lost their artery of supplies and are living on dates and whatever else they can obtain locally. In Mesopotamia General Marshall's operations have been equally success- ful, although the British columns are competing againut nature 'as well as against the Turks, whose policy of running away tncreas the difficulty. The Turks have long bus planning a great offensive toward Persia and the Caspian Sea, and General Marshall's objett is to interfere as much as pos- sible with that plan., He has been successful in diverting a considerable num.

You corn -pestered men and women need suffer no longer: Wear the shoes that nearly killed you before, says this Cincinnati authority, because . a few drops of freezone applied directly on a tender, aching corn on callus, stops soreness at once and soon the corn or hardened callus loosens so it can be lifted off, root and all, without pain. A small bottle of freezone costs very little at any drug store, but will positively take off every hard or soft corn or cullus. This should be tried, as it is inexpensive and is said not to irritate the surrounding skin. If your druggist hasn't any freezone tell him to get a small bottle for you from his wholesale drug house.

When constable Shepherd reach- ed Rosebank he learned that the two -suspects had gone east on the G. T. R. tracks. He started in pursuit and found his men lying by the side of the tracks just a short distance west of Pickering -station. He went alone to take the men into custody. One of the men drew a bayonet which he had concealed on his person. Mr. Shepherd drew his revolver, which had outlived its usefulness, having the hammer broken, and was otherwise so ou • to render it harmless. However it served its purpose by compel- ling the men, who had a decidedly criminal appearance, to submit to the man of authority. Tey were taken before Police Magistrate Jephson. charged with house. breaking and theft. They were, remanded for a week, and taken to Whitby jail *here they will be the guests of Mr. Scheiller. The goods are now in the possession of Constable Shepherd, awaiting claimants. They are supposed to have been taken from cottages .

They stated that they came from the United States and expressed surprise that their captor did not shoot, not knowing however, that he couldef if he wanted to.:It has since been found that the men were Americans who had enlisted in a Toronto battal- ion and had deserted.
